DEAR DR. ROACH: In two weeks, I am supposed to get Botox injections for my overactive bladder (OAB) and my frequent need to urinate at nighttime. Are these injections safe? Are there any bad side effects? How long do they work? -- D.J.
ANSWER: The initial treatment for OAB symptoms usually consists of lifestyle changes (i.e.,quitting smoking and avoiding medicationsthatworsensymptomsatnight), pelvic floor muscle exercises, and bladder training. If these are ineffective, medication is often used. If medications don’t work or cannot be tolerated, additional treatments are considered, such as Botox.
The underlying problem with an OAB are uncontrolled bladder spasms. Botox is a powerful suppressor of muscle activity. If just the right amount is used, the excess muscle spasms are reduced,and the person gets good results. However, if too much is used, the person may not be able to urinate spontaneously at all, so your urologist will be giving you instructions on how to selfcatheterize, in case you are unable to void your bladder after the injection.
If you note that the leakage has worsened a week or so after the procedure, this is a big clue that the bladder is not functioning after the injection. This can last for months, but typically no more than three months. Fortunately, this complication happens uncommonly, in about 2%-7% of people. Other complications include infections and bleeding, but these are not common. Antibiotics are given to reduce the risk of infection. Very rarely, muscles outside of the bladder are affected, including generalized weakness and eye muscle weakness. When it works well, most people start noticing benefit in a week or so, and relief typically lasts 9-12 months before another injection is given.
When pain hits, it can be mild to debilitating. Many people get severe pain that makes it difficult to function.A migraine can last for hours or even days.

Park in the shade, but choose spots wisely. Parking in the shade may protect vehicles from the ultraviolet rays of the sun, but it’s important that drivers pick the right shady spot to park their cars and trucks.Ashade tree might seem like a great ally to vehicle owners,but if birds nest or rest in the tree,drivers could be exposing their cars to bird droppings.That’s no small threat,as bird droppings are high in uric acid, which quickly damage a vehicle’s exterior. Parking directly beneath a tree also might expose the paint job to sap or fallen leaves or berries, each of which can adversely vehicle exteriors. If you plan to park in the shade to protect the paint job, ideally choose a spot that is not directly beneath the tree.

Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide. In the United States, one in five people will develop skin cancer by the age of 70, and more than two people die of skin cancer in the U.S. every hour, says the Skin Cancer Foundation. Roughly 90 percent of non-melanoma skin cancers are associated with exposure to UV radiation from the sun. Melanoma also is inextricably linked to UV exposure. In the United Kingdom, nearly nine in 10 cases of melanoma can be prevented by staying safe in the sun.The American Cancer Society estimates about 100,000 new melanomas will be diagnosed in 2024, when roughly 8,290 people are expected to die of melanoma. The number of people getting skin cancer in Canada also has risen at a fairly constant rate over the last 30 years. One in 73 Canadian women and one in 59 Canadian men will develop the disease, according to Canada.ca. Early detection of skin cancer can improve prognosis.

CLASSIC WINE AND FOOD PAIRINGS
Congruent pairings, according to Wine Folly, create balance in the mouth by amplifying shared flavor compounds. For example, earth wines paired with earthy mushrooms. Contrasting pairings create balance through contrasting flavors.Therefore,a salad with acidity and bitterness may be complemented with a wine that is sweeter and not so acidic, or so may be the case with a fatty, salty food like foie gras.
Avoid peak hours: Book a reservation before peak hours so everyone can relax and take their time.Also,choosing a day of the week other than Friday, Saturday or Sunday also may mean smaller crowds and less wait time to receive food.
Sport utility vehicles (SUVs) may never be as fuel-efficient as more traditional cars, but one segment of the SUV market has made great strides in relation to fuel efficiency since the turn of the century. Data from the Environmental Protection Agency’s 2020 EPA Automotive Trends Report indicated the small SUV segment had the greatest improvement of fuel economy among all vehicle segments between 2000 and 2020. Average fuel economy among small SUVs increased by 65 percent during that period, which began with such vehicles getting 17.9 miles per gallon of gas and ended with them averaging 29.5 miles per gallon.The Chevrolet Equinox FWD, the Ford Edge FWD, the Hyundai Kona FWD, the Jeep Cherokee FWD, and the Mazda CX-30 2WD are among the vehicles that are categorized as small SUVs.

WHAT EVERYONE CAN DO TO PROTECT THE WORLD’S OCEANS
Reduce your carbon footprint. Oceana notes that carbon dioxide is making oceans more acidic, which contributes to a loss of coral that serves as an essential source of food and shelter for marine life. According to the Reef-World Foundation, loss of coral threatens the existence of many marine species, producing a domino effect that ultimately decreases marine biodiversity by a significant amount. That’s problematic for marine life, but also humans, as estimates from the United Nations indicate as many as one billion people across the globe depend on coral reefs for their food and livelihoods. The threat posed to coral reefs is substantial, but the efforts to reduce your carbon footprint aren’t. Riding a bike to run errands on a warm day instead of driving a car; turning off the lights when leaving a room; and dressing warm on cold days to reduce reliance on home heating systems are some easy ways to reduce your carbon footprint.
MAKING THE SWITCH TO EARLY-MORNING
WORKOUT
Skip afternoon caffeine and evening alcohol. Getting up early to exercise will likely require an adjustment period. One way to make it easier to rise and shine a few hours earlier is to limit behaviors that can make it hard to get out of bed. Coffee and other caffeinated products can make it challenging to fall asleep at night if consumed too late in the day. Alcoholic beverages, while they may cause you to fall asleep faster, adversely affect sleep quality. When sleep is compromised, you may be more inclined to hit the snooze button.

STRANGE BUT TRUE
By Lucie Winborne
DID YOU KNOW?
Few individual accomplishments in sports may be more coveted than sinking a hole-in-one on the golf course, but golfers from all walks of life may not want to hold their breath hoping to accomplish that feat the next time they hit the links. According to the National Hole-in-One Registry, the odds of the average player making a hole-in-one are 12,500 to 1. Even professional golfers may want to temper their expectations of sinking a hole-in-one, as the Registry cites the odds of a pro accomplishing the feat as 3,000 to 1. Golfers who like to play in foursomes should know that their odds of sinking a hole-in-one if someone in their group has already done so are especially long.According to the Registry, the chances of two players from the same foursome sinking a hole-in-one are 17 million to 1.
PAW’S CORNER
By Sam Marzotta
DEAR PAW'S CORNER: I have a 1-year-old mixed-breed puppy named "Star" who I'd love to take on Saturday hikes with me. I'm an avid hiker who can do up to 20 miles or more per day. Is this too much for a young dog like her to handle? -- Gary in Boulder, Colorado
DEAR GARY: Your instincts are right-on -that kind of mileage is too much for a puppy. But, depending on the dog, you can build Star's stamina gradually, adding miles as she grows. For a 1-year-old puppy, start with no more than a mile or two, and keep it light and fun. If Star whines at three-quarters of a mile, take a break for a few minutes and see if she'll go on. If she shows signs of tiredness, like lagging behind and not being curious about things around her, it's time to head back. Some pet parents will carry their puppy for the remaining miles, but that's up to you -- I think that it's better to just gradually build the miles.
Notice that I also said "depending on the dog." Some dogs just aren't enthusiastic about hiking long miles. Others -- especially small dogs, toy and pocket breeds -- cannot walk very far without tiring. (Fortunately, they can be carried easily.) Don't lament if hiking ultimately isn't Star's thing; just build an outdoor schedule where she can share in the fun on some days with short hikes, and you can still get in lots of mileage while she remains at home or with a friend.

Prepare to dine in. Be sure to factor food into your budget for a day at the aquarium. Many facilities do not permit outside food and drink as selling in-house treats is clearly a way for them to increase revenue. Prices are what you may expect at any museum, amusement park or other attraction, which means eating inside will be more costly than dining outside the building.
